Ulangan 30:15-16

30:15 “Look! I have set before you today life and prosperity on the one hand, and death and disaster on the other. 30:16 What ¹  I am commanding you today is to love the Lord your God, to walk in his ways, and to obey his commandments, his statutes, and his ordinances. Then you will live and become numerous and the Lord your God will bless you in the land which you are about to possess. ² 

Ezra 9:12

9:12 Therefore do not give your daughters in marriage to their sons, and do not take their daughters in marriage for your sons. Do not ever seek their peace or welfare, so that you may be strong and may eat the good of the land and may leave it as an inheritance for your children ³  forever.’

Mazmur 34:11

34:11 Come children! Listen to me!

I will teach you what it means to fear the Lord. ⁴ 

Yesaya 30:23

30:23 He will water the seed you plant in the ground,

and the ground will produce crops in abundance. ⁵ 

At that time ⁶  your cattle will graze in wide pastures.

[30:16]  ¹ tc A number of LXX mss insert before this verse, “if you obey the commandments of the Lord your God,” thus translating אֲשֶׁר (’asher) as “which” and the rest as “I am commanding you today, to love,” etc., “then you will live,” etc.

[30:16]  ² tn Heb “which you are going there to possess it.” This has been simplified in the translation for stylistic reasons.

[9:12]  ³ tn Heb “sons”; cf. KJV, NAB, NIV, NLT “children”; NCV, TEV “descendants.”

[34:11]  ⁴ tn Heb “the fear of the Lord I will teach you.” In vv. 13-14 the psalmist explains to his audience what it means to “fear” the Lord.

[30:23]  ⁵ tn Heb “and he will give rain for your seed which you plant in the ground, and food [will be] the produce of the ground, and it will be rich and abundant.”

[30:23]  ⁶ tn Or “in that day” (KJV).
